I recently traveled to the battle site of Birch Coulie. How any of these men survived that battle, I will never know…

cool

The Ojibwa had no part in this fight. It was all the Sioux/Dakota people against the whites. Little Crow tried to recruit the Ojibwa but they wanted no part of this fight.

Excellent voiceover of an intriguing cattle drive and the recurring ghosts of the cows and riders. What is the remarkable painting at 8:23?

Good video 👍🏼

It is continuously incomprehensible that that U.S. military/mindset of removing, starving, and/or annihilating the Indians to take their country/land happened let alone recently. Ego can destroy if left unfettered.... and here we are only 180 years or so later discussing a vital component of American history.... Still evident in existence of reservations, the federal government's control of reservations, and gleeful tactics of control with casinos and alcohol.

'Apaches at allied with the Comanches for years' I don't think so! The Comanches obliterated the Apaches!

Settlers are not civilians they are occupiers!

I think Fetterman shooting himself was a disproving myth.

Actually a 40 year migration

I live in Colorado. This is why Mt. Evans has been renamed Mt. Blue Sky.

Thank you so much for this I have always loved stories like this

The U.S is worse than Nazi

That’s not where it happened!! It happened in an area know as Canon City, Colorado. The land was shared between the indigenous and a black cattle rancher. They live peacefully with each other and he had a family with one of the women. He was used to be harassed by kernel Chivington and his men. On the day this happened. The soldiers came from behind the mountain in a way they would surprise the rancher as he was known to stand up to them. The massacre started with them Sneaking up on him first. As he didn’t have time to warn the indigenous who lived on the lower part of the land. The land Sloped!, and was at the base of small mountain. NOT WHERE THEYRE TELLING PEOPLE IT HAPPENED!! I pray for the souls of those who wander the land still and for those who have incarnated and remember!

Music by America’s greatest composer, Aaron Copeland

Official investigations: As to Colonel Chivington, your committee can hardly find fitting terms to describe his conduct. Wearing the uniform of the United States, which should be the emblem of justice and humanity; holding the important position of commander of a military district, and therefore having the honor of the government to that extent in his keeping, he deliberately planned and executed a foul and dastardly massacre which would have disgraced the veriest savage among those who were the victims of his cruelty. Having full knowledge of their friendly character, having himself been instrumental to some extent in placing them in their position of fancied security, he took advantage of their in-apprehension and defenceless condition to gratify the worst passions that ever cursed the heart of man. In conclusion, your committee are of the opinion that for the purpose of vindicating the cause of justice and upholding the honor of the nation, prompt and energetic measures should be at once taken to remove from office those who have thus disgraced the government by whom they are employed, and to punish, as their crimes deserve, those who have been guilty of these brutal and cowardly acts.

that should of never happen chiviton was a hot head man

John smith...dum dum dum..

Nobody should have ever showed up to that meeting with that treaty. No one understood each other. The Indians had no idea what they were signing. And plus none of these Indians were in charge of anybody they were just advisors to the rest of their tribe they were not in charge the chief doesn't tell other people what to do he leads based on respect but no one has to do what he says one thing about all Indians no one tells them what to do

Don't colonize other people's land and expect no retaliation

I grew and live in the new ulm area. I remember reading about it school and went on school trips to learn more history. And as an adult now and still find artifacts in the spring and we recently found and grinding Boulder and stones on our farm

Scary

August 17th? That was Davy Crockett's birthday

The victor re-writes history-:Winston Churchill

The actual history is far more interesting and rich. The lineage of this song starts in Ireland with "Johny I hardly knew ye" an old war protest song, you can find Joan Baez excellent version here on utube, it crossed the Atlantic and became "When Johny comes marching home again", Dolly partons version is a great reference. This was a favourite whistled by Stan Jones as he checked his weather stations while working as a park ranger, clouds rolling in. He went on to write Ghost Riders for the sons of the Pioneers, a television band of cowboys who at the time were working as caddies at a golf club.

The American Native Americans were being starved by the American government it is the truth

Maybe should be renamed: That one time the native inhabitants resisted being routinely slaughtered themselves. USA did the largest mass execution. But the natives are the massacrers. For defending themselves.

We heard about this in school, but this is the first true documentary I’ve seen on it. Good job, and thank you for making this

Music too high

Truck-key not true-key

American's win engines lose. Praise God and God bless America

Music is too loud and overpowers the narrative

ACTING LIKE THE COLONIZERS ARE VICTIMS COME ONE

A bit of timeline perspective here. When I was a child in the 1950's, the cemetery where my uncle who was KIA in World War II was buried, held a very impressive laying of the wreathes ceremony. First a young veteran of the Korean War would lay a wreath in memory of his fallen comrades. Then someone like my Dad's age would lay a wreath for those who gave their lives in WW II. Next, a veteran of WW I, my Grandpa's Great War, would lay a wreath. And so on back through our nations conflicts. I remember the fellow who placed the wreath for the Spanish American War seemed ancient, but then an old soldier who must have been nearly 100 years old placed a wreath for those who had fought in the Indian Wars. This gentleman would have been a youthful 20 year old in the late 1870's. It made quite the impression on me. Fast forward to the present. My grandson's school was having a Veterans Day program and I took my Dad. As a WW II veteran, he's now the age of that old veteran from the Indian Wars. The program had a time when they asked veterans in attendance to stand up as they recognized veterans from recent conflicts back to Vietnam. Then they stopped because they didn't think they had anyone older. My grandson whispered to his teacher and she rather embarrassingly asked if there were any Korean War veterans and there wasn't one. Then she asked World War II, and my Dad stood up. There was a hush in the auditorium and then a huge round of applause and cheering. After the program, dozens of people lined up just to shake Dad's hand. It was a memorable day for a lot of people, including my Dad. Makes you think about what we, as a nation, will be like in another seventy-five years.

This randomly appeared on my feed although im a big history buff and especially first person narratives but hadnt watched any in quite a while however as i immediatly subscribed even before hearing it and i appreciate this great piece of history and hope for more.

It was. Terrible. When. The. Buffalo. Were. Wiped out. Done. For. A reason. No doubt. ,?

People claim the first mass shootings were with modern weapons lol . 3 native Americans killed 12 or so school kids in the 1700s using muskets

Forget Pat Garret. He had to shoot Billy at night cause he couldnt seem to do it during the day time

I’m thankful the algorithm decided to recommend me this video, this is quite a vivid and horrifying retelling of this grim piece of history, thank you for covering these stories.

If someone came from another country settled on your land and claim it theirs, I think anyone would’ve been a little Upset, wouldn’t you say?

they loved to torture people, women children, everybody...
